val> bonitochico dresses r nice.. but only hv std sizes and some of their dresses r quite short…
I’ve bought some of their dresses b4 but sometimes even myself feels that it’s small or juz nice for me… so dun dare to buy as JM dresses as I hv some JMs who cant wear that fitting clothings…
so online blogshops r def out for me…
will be looking at newlook online… some of their dresses r quite nice and material not bad too… my fren has bought some dresses from newlook in dubai… material is better than F21…
Thomas> VS always hv sales de… so if u getting those sales items at least it can offset the shipping costs…
Eileen> cant see the link… cos office block…
avatar> my bro is thinking of getting sweetest moments for his son’s baby shower too… and it’s like 1 mth difference to my GDL… so relative might be getting the same stuffs… at least for the cupcakes…

Bluey> Yupz, think they only provide the cards, and the printer they recommend, is pretty expensive, when I have to also print church invites. Especially also when I read how much avatar paid for her nice cards printed in Malaysia
But we are also lazy to travel to JB, so I guess we just went with what was recommended.
Ya agreed w bluey that u girls r talking abt so many things fro
euro to pjs to printing of cards to jiemei dresses to cakes hahaha
yes I'm in for the vs spree too!
sorry to ask, why r u girls searching for wine? Tot hotel already provide for every table?
When is a good to get the cards from hotel?
to share my experience, I have 8 jiemeis n all different sizes, from xs to xxxl! N I spent a lot of time online to search for a design that fits all.
ended up trial n error a few wasted pieces n settled for two different designs. N there are still a lot of complaints from them abt design, length, size, material etc so u girls better consider carefully before buying for them, it's either mtm or just go for colour code.

Avatar> Nope, its Jasvy. The coordinator said that they usually print the hotel's cards. So we just went with it....plus also got some ang pows customised with our names and cartoons.
Deb> Please also include me, though I will be going to US for honeymoon, but thats 2 months after the wedding and I really want something "special" for the night... keke *embarrassed*
Coco> My hotel only provides limited bottles of wines. Will need to get extra. I think usually hotels will recommend to collect about 3 months before the wedding, but we collected earlier as we wanted to print the cards fast.
Anyone of you also prevented from doing any wedding preparations during the Chinese Ghost Festival? That's one whole month cut off!!

Coco: Any time from now is a good time to collect the cards. Can slowly prepare liao since only left 4 mths.
wow.. seems like most of you getting clothes for your jiemeis. heheehe.. I have a tight schedule on AD, so no gatecrashing. I just let my helpers wear whatever they are comfortable with.
My banquet package includes free flow of beer and wine. don't think wanna provide hard liquor for my wedding lunch. luckily save me some trouble..
by right, not supposed to do anything in lunar 7th mth. hahaa.. but i think i might be selecting my AD gown during lunar 7th mth if I can't find any suitable gowns... cos usually all gowns will be back during this mth.

Sigh I hv been busy preparing for my rom In July so never start preparing all the rest of the thingy like cards, sitting arrangement, GDL, cakes etc oh no!!!! Think I better faster finalize the guest list n request for my cards.
Btw girls, mine is a wedding lunch n raffles will be giving a bottle for each table, n we are thinking of exchanging the beer for 10 bottles of wine instead, do u think it will be enough for afternoon crowd?
Looks like all if u r quite geared haha I think at my rate of doing things n with the rom stucked in between, I think I can't avoid doing stuff during 7th mth.
Will u girls mind having someone with a horoscope that crashed with u or ur htb, or crashes w the date itself as bros or jiremei on ad?

Hi Eileen, I initially tot of buying this dress for my JMs too fr starglance and i chance upon dressabelle (cheaper abit) do sell it as well and i bot 1 for myself for testing.
I would say ur JMs muz b comfy and really know how to tie e dress if not she will uncomfortable wearing it afraid some part of the material may left a "hole" baring parts of their body..they muz tie till very secure..
In e end i gave up e idea of buying it for my JMs as for myself i dun dare to wear out myself..still sourcing for JMs dress..i got e same prob too..range fr S to XXL..

wiwi: sg's prices are easily double or more than jb's prices.
I spent abt S$80 only on my inserts, printed 200 (both sides with map) and T&T gave me another 20 inserts extra which was quite a pleasant surprise for us. Also 3 free animated icons for us to use on the inserts.
I compared the prices with T-Dragon...if I were to print in sg, I wld have to pay 200+.
